LGBT: Transgendered in NY? Ok by the state!

Here is a NY Times article about a change in state policy such that trans individuals can have their gender changed on their birth certificate without having had a sex-change operation.

  1. As someone who routinely uses birth certificates for genealogy I must say this might make things very confusing.
